It can be used by both developers and business users to build applications. These applications support API integration, data visualization, and responsive user interfaces.

Applications built on the platform can be deployed on public or private cloud infrastructure.Containers can be deployed on top of virtual machines or directly on bare metal. The software includes a graphical user interface (GUI) console for managing infrastructure using Docker containerization.

The platform provides features for application deployment, lifecycle and release management, deployment workflows, and access control:

  • Apps for web, tablet, and smartphone interfaces
  • Enterprise technologies like Java, Hibernate, Spring, AngularJS, JQuery
  • Docker-provided APIs and CLI
